The Special Prosecution of Kosovo has said that it has sent an official request to the Croatian authorities for the provision of evidence regarding the arrest of the Serbian citizen of the Republic of Kosovo, against whom and her partner, the District Prosecutor's Office in Split has opened an investigation for espionage.

The Prosecution announces that it is in constant contact with the relevant authorities and will take all necessary legal actions in accordance with the agreements on international legal cooperation.

Following the arrest of Ana Murganić, from North Mitrovica, and her boyfriend, a pilot in the Croatian Army and a member of KFOR in Kosovo, the Croatian state justice bodies have imposed a 30-day detention. They were arrested on suspicion of transmitting information to Lista Srpska about developments in northern Kosovo.

However, according to Croatian media, the scandal is even bigger. In addition to the leaked messages with confidential data about KFOR, other secret information has also been included. The Večernji list newspaper reported that Murganic had been part of EULEX and UNMIK, and was allegedly infiltrated by Serbian secret services to influence trials against former KLA leaders.

The Split County Court has not given more details other than that the investigation is secret.

"According to the law and the very nature of the procedures, the investigation is secret, but as for the level of secrecy, I honestly don't know. The sentence for espionage, specifically for the one for which the Croatian citizen is accused, is between one and ten years in prison, while for other charges it is from six months to five years," said Neven Cambj, spokesperson for the Split District Court.

The defense lawyer of the espionage suspect, Doris Koshta, has stated that the defendants have pleaded not guilty and have already filed a complaint.

"They actively defended themselves. Each defendant denies committing the crime. I have already appealed," said Doris Koshta, defense lawyer for the espionage suspect.

Meanwhile, the Office of the President of the Republic of Croatia issued a statement on Thursday noting that President Zoran Milanovic had been informed of the events as they unfolded and had strongly supported the work of the institutions that uncovered the possible crimes.

"The President of the Republic was informed in a timely manner about the activities of the competent institutions undertaken in this case and expects an efficient investigation that will determine all the relevant facts. Every member of the Armed Forces must perform his military duty honestly and lawfully, and if any violation of the law and the oath is discovered, it must be appropriately punished."

According to Croatian newspaper Večernji list, the pair had been arrested earlier but released; They have now been arrested again after new compromising messages emerged. Murganic passed on the information to the leaders of Lista Srpska, a party that has close ties to the Government of Serbia.
